The working principle of hyaluronic acid injections

Hydra-needling is a common aesthetic treatment that uses microneedles to directly deliver nutrient-rich substances, primarily hyaluronic acid, to specific skin layers to improve skin condition. Its working principle mainly involves three key aspects: hydrating injection, nourishment of nutrients, and stimulation of the skin’s self-repair mechanism:

Hydrating Injection: The core component of hydra-needling is hyaluronic acid, which has strong water-absorbing properties and can attract a large number of water molecules within the skin. Through microneedle injection, a solution containing hyaluronic acid is precisely delivered to the dermis layer of the skin. The dermis acts like a ‘reservoir,’ where hyaluronic acid quickly absorbs and locks moisture, allowing skin cells to be immersed in an adequately hydrated environment. This makes the skin appear plump and moisturized, effectively addressing issues such as dryness and fine lines caused by dehydration.

Nourishment of Nutrients: In addition to hyaluronic acid, hydra-needling can also incorporate various nutrients like vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and collagen. These nutrients enter the skin through injection, providing ample ‘fuel’ and ‘building materials’ for skin cell metabolism. Vitamin C can inhibit melanin production, offering whitening and spot-lightening effects; amino acids participate in protein synthesis within skin cells, aiding in maintaining normal cell function and structure; collagen enhances skin elasticity and firmness. The combined action of multiple nutrients comprehensively nourishes the skin, promoting its health and beauty.

Stimulation of Skin Self-Repair Mechanism: During the hydra-needling process, the microneedles create minor injuries to the skin. These minor injuries activate the skin’s self-repair mechanisms, prompting the skin to initiate the healing process. During this process, the skin accelerates the production of new collagen and elastic fibers, promoting cell proliferation and differentiation, making the skin tissue structure more compact, thereby enhancing skin elasticity and firmness. Additionally, during the repair process, the skin promotes metabolism, accelerating the shedding of old keratin layers, giving the skin a renewed vitality.
